MAPIX-M - FEMA Region IX Coordination SIte
The Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA's) Federal Insurance and Mitigation Administration's Hazard Mapping Division maintains and updates the National Flood Insurance Program maps. FEMA is working with local communities and other agencies to tap into their mapping expertise as it applies to flood maps.

This site provides scheduling information, calendars of events, meeting minutes, scoping information, and general project information for various studies in FEMA Region IX. A link to a secure collaborative website is also provided to facilitate communication and coordination between FEMA Region IX and MAPIX-M.

Hams support firefighting
As wind-driven fires continue to burn in California, Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES) and Radio Amateur Civil Emergency Service (RACES) teams have activated to assist local authorities and relief organizations.
